Anyone have experience with a 25hp Subaru GTR on a round chine hull? I have a 18/44 GD hull and am considering down grading to a refuge legal motor. I know it won’t be fast, I have a bay boat to go fast, just wondering if I should go 23 longtail or if this used Subaru I found would be a better option? |

GD originally developed that hull for 14 to 18HP LTs - not fast but very effective... A 23 GDLT will push that hull thru wet concrete - lol - and is lighter than a SD but it may just come to choice of easy driving with a SD or that last bit of extra push of a LT... Also you will likely need smaller 9 inch diameter props in some HP restricted areas so finding a quality source of these props or a local prop shop to modify them for a SD will also be important... The 23 GDLT comes with a 9" and go 9x6 or less not 9x7 if you go that route the 9x6 was my favorite prop for that motor on my GD 16x48... Should work fine either way - just allow a bit of extra time to get out to your spots... |

Yeah I’m probably just going to go with a longtail and keep my 37gdsd. |

Found a 25 GoDevil FNR on a 16/44 GoDevil hull, think I’m going to get it and sell my rig. The FNR will be nice, plus most of the time I’m by myself or one other person |

How much you want for the 1844 hull? It is the LT hull, right? Not the SD... I’m looking at the option of buying a used 1844 GD LT hull..’01 vintage....needs a lot of work, though...:and dropping a 40 HP Backwater on it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
